Default 92 integra rear disc swap - wider wheelbase question

I recently pulled a '92 integra rear disc setup to swap into my 95 coupe. The junkyard I went to didn't have any 94+ integras.
A quick glance at the internet said it would be an ok swap.

However on further reading it looks like there are some issues but nobody seems to have a clear answer what they are.

So my first question is: what are some of the issues I may run into?

Secondly, one forum said my wheelbase will increase by 3mm. What are the consequences of this to drivability, cornering, camber etc?

Thanks!!

Will it affect my ability to get the wheels aligned in future?

1.5mm is very minimal. You should be fine on all fitments depending on what you are looking to do.

Your not even going to see the 1.5mm diference. it's nothing to worry about.
